I don't see any setting that allows me to disable the screen lock once the backlight shuts off. The main thing I want to do is end a call without having to first unlock the phone. Anyway I can do either? Change the auto lock settings and/or end a call without having to unlock the device?

Doesn't appear to be one, I've looked all over for it. This is one of the few things I hate about the phone, it's SO annoying to unlock to do something, and it locks so fast too, like after 10 seconds.

I was beginning to think it was only my phone that was doing that. When I searched under tutorial for the phone it did not mentioned anything about unlocking the phone after a call, which makes me believe there is a way to disable it. It is annoying me as well, hate having to unlock to hang up.
